Great product for a great price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fantastic starter blu ray player for a very reasonable price! It works great, I got it refurbished and it works and looks like it’s brand new. The online ordering and pickup process made it super easy to get in and out with exactly what I was looking for. I’ve recently gotten into collecting physical media so this is a great way to be able to watch them and continue to grow my film collection. Highly recommend this player
I would recommend this to a friendExcellent BluRay / DVD player.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally had to replace my old Sony BluRay player. I do not have a 4K TV, so this model was in the perfect price point for me. I selected this model also because it has the audio connection options I needed to connect it to my home theater system. It works great and the sound and video quality are great. It is easy for my spouse and kids to operate as well. An excellent value and I would highly recommend this brand and model.

Versatile Blue-Ray, DVD and CD player
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the little Sony 1700U Blue-Ray player to replace my 2014 Toshiba dvd/vcr player. The small size stacks easily above the cable receiver. Easy setup with accompanying HDMI cable. I like that I can pop in a music CD without having to load the multi disc player and the sound is great. So far the dvd playback is crisp and clear.

Wasn’t the one I wanted but…
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not the DVD player I wanted. I wanted to buy a Samsung because it matches my TV and other things that I have. Sorry I bought the Sony. And it’s working just fine. I’m not having trouble with it. I haven’t used it a lot yet, but call me when I have it worked about this one.

Posted .Hi CarltonC,
We’re sorry to hear about the repeated issues with your player. This lock-up can sometimes be resolved by performing a power reset: unplug the power cord for two minutes, then hold the Power button on the unit while plugging it back in to force a hardware reboot. If the tray remains stuck and the unit is unresponsive, it may indicate a specific power compatibility issue, and we encourage you to contact our support team so we can investigate this further for you: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Quality picture, Very basic DVD player
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this is my second dvd player. coming from an older version that was made in 2015 this home screen is pretty basic. the old one had apps so can use like netflix or youtube so the home screen looks inviting. this dvd player home screen it just black with just the option to start the movie or load the usb drive, so i can understand when people say they connot see the main menu. when I put in a dvd the old 2015 version will tell me it's analyzing it dvd, please wait and ready to start. this version doesn't give any warning so i pretty much pray if the movie works (lol) so if there's a situation when a movie disc can't work idk if it's because the dvd itself or the dvd player. For some reason on the home screen after it reads a disc some of my movie shows a yellow picture option to start playing, others blue. idk what that means I hope some of my movies are not bootlegs (I did buy some off of Ebay lol). maybe it's supposed to be a fun feature this system offers... but yeah, I don't understand that. this one is probably a positive feature for you, but to me it's annoying. it has so many buttons to rewind or fast forward. There's the basic one to go to the next scene or back, one to rewind or fast forward slowly, then a 15 second option to go back and forth. who needs a 15 second count. it's annoying when I watch a movie at night and can't see the remote. if you have any extra remotes to a previous Sony DVD player like me, it will work on this as well, so I tend to switch the remote since the old remote is very basic and easy to use, Ending with positive feedback, the picture quality is amazing, it's like I'm watching the same movie for the first time again. This is what makes the price worth it. I would recommend this for people who want very a basic dvd player

Posted .Hi Burnt,
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback on the Sony BDP-S1700U. We appreciate you taking the time to provide such a comprehensive review.
We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the amazing picture quality and that the player is making your movies feel brand new again. We designed the unit to offer a simple and streamlined experience for playing Blu-ray and DVD discs, and we appreciate your point about the home screen's minimal design. Regarding the on-screen messages and the different colors of the play icons, these are often related to the disc type or content and are not an indication of a bootleg.
We value your insights on the remote and the app functionality, and we will certainly pass this feedback along to our product development team for future consideration.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

Impressively Small Footprint
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't speak to durability as I have only had it a few days. However, I can say that the small size and footprint is nice. The unit takes up very little space compared to the monsters of the past. The functionality of the unit and remote is great. No complaints. Sony quality at an affordable price. The proper HDMI cable was in the box making connection to the TV a snap.
